So many chat apps that no one will realistically use. Until we have interoperability between different apps it's completely pointless releasing new ones.

[–] Telorand@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

You won't get interoperability without people creating these kinds of apps. There's no reason Company A would futureproof their platform to communicate with apps that don't exist, because that's unnecessary development; the interoperability comes after the platforms exist. Email is a prime example of this.

So, I disagree that it's pointless.
